AI Link: Cross-chain Access for AI
This chapter introduces AI Link, Nesa’s cross-chain AI inference capability. AILink enables applications on external blockchains to access Nesa’s decentralized AI execution layer without migrating users, assets, or contracts to the Nesa chain. By decoupling inference execution from the originating chain, AILink allows AI to be used as a chain-agnostic service rather than a chain-specific feature. The chapter explains how AILink is designed around end-to-end privacy, asynchronous and non-blocking execution, and verifiable request handling, making it possible to integrate large-scale AI inference into on-chain applications while preserving user experience, security guarantees, and composability across ecosystems.
